Rejseplan
Din rejse begynder i Wat Chiang Man, Chiang Mai's ældste tempel. Som du træder gennem de gamle porte, vil du straks bemærke elefanter omgivet chedi, hvor 15 sten elefanter synes at bære strukturen på deres ryg. Inden for den vigtigste tilbedelseshal møder du den blændende krystal Buddha (Phra Sae Tang Khamani) og Marmor Buddha, to af Chiang Mai's mest hellige artefakter.
Lær historien bag statuen og dens kulturelle betydning. Grave og bygge dette mesterværk.
Tag derefter til Wat Phra Singh, som er et af de smukkeste templer ud af de mere end 300 templer, der findes i Chiang Mai-området. Det er et af de fineste eksempler på klassisk tempelarkitektur i Lanna-stil i det nordlige Thailand.
Wat Phan Tao er et buddhistisk tempel (wat) beliggende i den gamle by Chiang Mai, Thailand. Bygget i det 14. århundrede, blev det oprindeligt brugt som et palads, før det blev omdannet til et kloster. Templet er især bemærkelsesværdigt for sin træ ordination hall (viharn) lavet helt af teak træ, hvilket er usædvanligt, da de fleste thailandske templer er bygget af mursten og beton.
Udforsk den imponerende chedi i Wat Chedi Luang. Det er et højdepunkt i sig selv, ligesom den majestætiske stående Buddha i hovedbedesalen.

Visiting the temples in Chiang Mai with a local guide has been really interesting. Jane was knowledgeable and very kind. She explained a lot of things about temples and they traditions, in very good English.
We did this walking tour of Chiang Mai's old city and it was a highlight of our trip. Our guide Jane was friendly, patient, and clearly knew the history inside and out. She walked us through several temples, including Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang, explaining the meaning behind the Buddha images, the murals, and the temple architecture in a way that was easy to follow and genuinely interesting. Jane explained the story of King Mangrai founding Chiang Mai in 1296, the significance of the city's five gates, and the symbolism behind details like the Garuda figures and the offerings people bring to the temples. She was happy to answer all our questions along the way and made sure everyone in the group felt included. This is a great tour for anyone wanting real context and history behind the temples rather than just snapping photos. We left with a much deeper appreciation for Chiang Mai's old city. It's a good way to get a solid historic introduction to the temples before exploring further on your own, though be aware there is a fair amount of walking involved, so wear comfortable shoes. Highly recommend Jane as your guide if you book this tour.
I must admit that I wasn’t sure how I would fare walking for three hours on a hot day for this walking tour, but with our wonderful tour guide, JJ, it was a breeze. She was so knowledgeable and informative, and kept us engaged during our walking tour that the time flew by! Thank you, Jane (JJ) for this experience that we will be sure others know about.
TwoTwo was a great guide. He provided a lot of information about the temples and was able to answer our many questions. This was a nice way to hit the highlights of a few major temples in Chiang Mai.
Two Two was very informative and knowledgable, but building some good humour too. He was able to answer all questions asked and checked we understood.
Santi was amazing: so knowlegble about Thailand, Buddhism, and Chaing Mai! He was able to answer all my questions and really made me reflect too. Wonderful tour!
This was a really fun and interesting orientation to the city and Northern Thailand. Because I went on a Sunday, we even got to see some ladies doing traditional dances at the main temple. Highly recommend!
Great tour with Jen the guide! She was very knowledgeable, with great English and attitude. It was a great start to know Chiang Mai. Recommend!
Pang and Tin were excellent tour guides and hosts for the morning. The historical information they talked through plus all the Temples they showed us was first class.
